Houston Texas Maritime Lawyer

If you have suffered an injury while in the service of a vessel at sea, on an offshore rig or platform or in port, your best chance of making a full and fair recovery is to put your case in the hands of an experienced maritime lawyer. While many attorneys advertise themselves as maritime lawyers, most are not and will end up referring your case to a lawyer who focuses on maritime law. I have extensive experience successfully representing persons with Jones Act and other maritime claims.

I'm lawyer Harold Eisenman P.C., and for the past 34 years I have concentrated my Houston law practice on maritime cases. I represent injured seaman and harbor workers along the western Gulf of Mexico coast and in seaports around the world. I have extensive experience in handling injury cases in the Port of Houston, the Port of Beaumont, the Port of New Orleans and other Gulf of Mexico Ports.

Handling Maritime & Jones Act Cases From from Around the World

Almost 100 percent of my cases come to me as referrals from other lawyers and from former clients around the world. I am board-certified in personal injury law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. I am admitted to the bars of all Texas state courts, four federal court divisions, two federal appellate courts, and the U.S. Supreme Court.

One of the arts of serving as a maritime lawyer is selecting the right forum to hear your injury case. In the forums I select, I am able to resolve almost all of my cases within one year of filing.

In addition to maritime cases, I represent injured railroad workers recover compensation under the Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA) and other personal injury victims. I obtained the largest verdict for a railroad worker in the history of the federal court division where it was tried.

Consultations are always free. Contact maritime lawyer Harold Eisenman P.C. to discuss your case. All of the work we do is on contingency. This means Mr. Eisenman advances all costs of preparing your case and only charges a fee (a percentage of the recovery) when the case is successfully concluded. If there is no recovery, there is no fee.
